Was fortunate enough to dive in some great places over the years. Cozumel, grand Caiman, Hawaii and others. I admire folks who can get great underwater pictures. Never could equal what the pros can do in photography. Underwater sea life is truly awe
Inspiring.

I got certified about 50 years ago. Enjoyed the heck out of it and was able to dive in some great places. But, that was then and now about the only diving I do is in a bowl of ice cream. lol.

Great pictures !
I got certified about 45 years ago. Did most of my diving on the coral reefs in Mexico. It was great while it lasted but I haven't owned any gear for a good number of years.

I understand. Was in Australia a couple of years ago and they wouldn't let you dive the reef if you were over 60 without an Australian doctors physical. Nuts.

I wish I could dive. I can dive at most to 2 atmosphere's, but my sinuses cant equalize well and the pain is extreme. In my youth I could skin dive up to 20 feet and while the views were spectacular, the pain after was self defeating. I learned to just snorkel and look at the wonders of the reefs from at or near the surface. Thank you for the pictures, they are spectacular.
I have several buddies that spear fish, and while I have gone, I don't get to get down where they are and into the action.

When you go to the dive classes to get certified (PADI), they teach you how to equalize your sinuses to eliminate that issue.
As a young man, I thought I could never Scuba dive due to the pressure. When I got certified, they showed me how to handle that as well as the mask pressure at depth.

But what is really painful and scary is the Reverse Squeeze…when you can't clear your sinuses on the ascent and hoping you have enough air to make it happen.

I use a Canon R5 and two Inon Z330 strobes to put color back in my shots. The trick is to get close

I took a dive class to get certified, and I could not equalize with their techniques, nor with medication.
